Summary: "Az első fecske, és egyéb elbeszélések" by Ferenc Herczeg is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The stories explore themes of human relationships, societal norms, and the intricacies of love and duty. The opening tale introduces Mária, a young and determined doctor who confronts the complexities of her professional and personal life, setting the stage for reflections on gender roles and human emotions. The opening of the story presents a tense and dramatic scene where Mária is called to assist a wounded nobleman, Gróf Risztory, who has just survived an apparent suicide attempt.
